Laser Edge Banding Glue Application Tutorial for Furniture Manufacturing110


Step 1: Preparation

Before applying the glue, ensure the edge banding material and substrate are properly prepared. Remove any dust or debris from both surfaces. Test the glue on a small, inconspicuous area to ensure compatibility.

Step 2: Glue Selection

Choose a high-quality glue specifically designed for laser edge banding applications. This glue should be fast-setting, provide strong adhesion, and resist discoloration over time.

Step 3: Applying the Glue with Laser Gun

Use a laser edge banding glue gun to apply the glue evenly to the edge of the substrate. Hold the gun at a 90-degree angle to the surface and move it along the edge at a steady pace. Adjust the laser power and speed to achieve optimal glue application.

Step 4: Positioning the Edge Banding

Position the edge banding material over the glued substrate. Align the edges carefully and press firmly to ensure a secure bond. Use a rolling pin or rubber hammer to apply pressure along the entire length of the edge.

Step 5: Trimming the Excess Edge Banding

Once the glue has set, use a laser edge bander or a manual trimming tool to trim the excess edge banding material flush with the substrate. Adjust the laser power and speed to achieve a clean, precise trim.

Step 6: Finishing

To complete the process, sand or scrape the trimmed edge to ensure a smooth and flush finish. If desired, apply a protective coating such as lacquer or varnish to enhance the durability and appearance of the edge banding.

Additional Tips:

- Use a high-power laser to ensure proper glue application and penetration.

- Maintain a consistent distance between the glue gun nozzle and the substrate.

- Allow ample time for the glue to cure before handling the edge banded piece.

- Consider using a laser edge bander with automatic glue application for increased efficiency and precision.
